Five Stars As soon as I was finished with MOUTH TO MOUTH (the first book in the Beach Kingdom series) I knew I needed Jamie Prince's story immediately. A good Tessa Bailey novel is like eating a rich dessert: it's delicious so you try to savor it, and it leaves you with a sugar high. … Continue reading Review: Heat Stroke by Tessa Bailey
3.5 Stars What would we call this trope? The reverse secret baby trope? Idk but it was a unique premise that I enjoyed! One of the best parts of any Sophie Jordan novel is how readable her writing is. I would sit down with THIS SCOT OF MINE, and before I knew it, I was … Continue reading Review: This Scot of Mine by Sophie Jordan
Three Stars Romantic suspense novels are my favorite treat. I love reading about a couple falling in love while bullets are flying and the adrenaline is *ahem* pumping. So I was really excited to start my first book by Piper J. Drake. FIERCE JUSTICE follows Jason, a repenting mercenary for hire, and Arin, a K9 handler … Continue reading Review: Fierce Justice by Piper J. Drake
Four Stars I don't think I can adequately express my excitement over the fact that Elizabeth Hoyt has started a new series. NOT THE DUKE'S DARLING wasn't only a unique and exciting romance, it was also a masterful groundlaying for what looks to be a fantastic new historical romance series. As always, Ms. Hoyt's ability to … Continue reading Review: Not the Duke’s Darling by Elizabeth Hoyt
Four Stars Wow. What a roller coaster from beginning to end! I don't know how I've gone this long without reading a Karen Rose novel, but I am officially a fan. SAY YOU'RE SORRY is the first book in Ms. Rose's new Sacramento series. It's a wonderfully crafted romantic thriller following Daisy, a free spirit still … Continue reading Review: Say You’re Sorry by Karen Rose
Three Stars This review was difficult for me to write. I didn't hate this book, but it also didn't really grab my attention in any real way. In COWBOY HONOR, Carolyn Brown crafts a sweet world set on a Texas ranch with a big loving family. When I say these characters are sweet and loving, I … Continue reading Review: Cowboy Honor by Carolyn Brown
Four Stars I capital-L Loved this book! Every time I picked up my kindle in public, people would look at me like I was crazy because every few pages I would be laughing out loud. CRAZY CUPID LOVE is amusing, emotionally romantic with the perfect amount of steam, and an absolute blast to read. The plot … Continue reading Review: Crazy Cupid Love by Amanda Heger
Three Stars Jumping into a series on book seven is always a risk. Luckily, THE WRONG HIGHLANDER stands alone well and I enjoyed this book about Evina and Conran. Evi is desperate to save her ailing father, so she goes to request (force) Rory Buchanan, a famed healer, to cure him. Through a series of classic … Continue reading Review: The Wrong Highlander by Lynsay Sands
4.5 Stars I can always count on Jill Shalvis to make me smile while reading a book with heart, humor, and most of all, romance. PLAYING FOR KEEPS follows Sadie Lane, a struggling tattoo artist, and Caleb Parker, an Elon Musk-like tech mogul, on their journey from frenemies to love. To start off, dog lovers … Continue reading Review: Playing for Keeps by Jill Shalvis
4.5 Stars What a gift to fans of this series! TEXAS LEGACY is the long-awaited concluding novella to Lorraine Heath’s Texas Trilogy. The first book in the series, TEXAS DESTINY was initially published in 1997 (!?!?), but Ms. Heath slid readers back into her Texas world as you would slip into an old, worn-in pair … Continue reading Review: Texas Legacy by Lorraine Heath
